Advice for Dentists considering Botox Training

Cosmetic Courses have seen a growing number of Botox training Dentists and our other aesthetic medicine courses are proving equally popular amongst dental professionals.

Benefits of Botox Training for Dentists

• One in four dental practices now offer Botox and dermal filler treatments, to meet the high demand and enquiries from their patients.
  
  
• It is therefore important to keep up with your competitors: Botox and medical aesthetic training gives dentists a competitive edge.
  
  
• Dental hygienists can only administer non-surgical cosmetic treatments under the prescription and treatment plan of a dentist. Therefore, a number of dentists attend Botox training courses themselves rather than supervise others to offer the service in their practices.
  
  
• Cosmetic injectables services are often described as going “hand in hand” with cosmetic dentistry. The lip and peri-oral area is closely connected to the teeth and dentists often find that restoring volume to this region with dermal fillers enhances the results of their dental work.
  
  
• Botox can also assist your non-cosmetic dentistry practice e.g. relax the muscles of patients with Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction to help reduce symptoms.
  
  
• Botox usually lasts 4 to 6 months, so the timing is perfect to schedule alongside your patients’ routine dental exams.
  
  
• 1,000s of dentists have left the NHS since the Government's new unprofitable contract 5 years ago. The remuneration from a successful aesthetic medicine package exceeds that of the NHS. The increased incomes many previous Cosmetic Courses dentists have achieved through Botox treatments has allowed them to reduce their working hours and spend more time on social activities or marketing their business.
  
  
• Medical aesthetics is a very rewarding area to work in because you have high levels of control over how much contact time you spend with each patient, the products you use and the techniques you choose for administering them. For dentists used to working in the NHS, this is a greatly improved quality of working life.
